Project description:High metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line 5-8F expression patterns against low metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line 6-10B. This study was done to screen genes related with metastasis in NPC. The microarray analyses were done in a same batch. 6-10B cells are cultured and harvested at three different time points.
Project description:Five NPC cell lines (HONE1, CNE1, CNE2, 5-8F, and 6-10B) and an immortalized nasopharyngeal epithelial cell line NP69 were evaluated with 250K SNP arrays (Affymetrix) to detect the genome-wide DNA copy number alterations.
Project description:To search for molecular processes underlying miR-18a-mediated oncogenesis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) cells, whole-genome mRNA microarray analysis was performed using the HumanGene Expression 4 x 44k v2 Microarray Kit (Agilent Technologies) in 6-10B cells with stable miR-18a overexpression and in 5-8F cells with transient silencing of miR-18a by siRNA. Differentially expressed genes in miR-18a-overexpressing cell and differentially expressed genes in miR-18a knockdown cells were analyzed.
Project description:Five NPC cell lines (HONE1, CNE1, CNE2, 5-8F, and 6-10B) and an immortalized nasopharyngeal epithelial cell line NP69 were evaluated with 250K SNP arrays (Affymetrix) to detect the genome-wide DNA copy number alterations. The same type of data of 45 Chinese samples from the HapMap project was used as normal control. Data was analyzed using GCOS (GeneChip operating software, Ver.1.4), GTYPE (GeneChip Genotyping Analysis Software, Ver.4.1), and CNAT (chromosome copy number analysis tool, Ver.4.0, BRLMM algorithm).
